*Pink and purple Pygmy Puffs plush and keychains are available for purchase at [[The Wizarding World of Harry Potter]] at [[Zonko's Joke Shop (The Wizarding World of Harry Potter)|Zonko's shop]] (there’s the naming ceremony, a mini-show that accompanies purchasing a pygmy puff plush, in which a shopkeeper will ring a bell and announce that you have adopted one and sometimes, the name you have chosen for yours) and on the [http://www.universalorlando.com/Merchandise/ProductList.aspx?q=pygmy+puff Official Online Merchandise Store] of the park. The plush measure six inches (15.25cm) in diameter (that seems to be a pretty big diameter considering that Aronold in the books can ride Ginny's shoulders and that a nest of dead puffskeins, that are bigger than pygmy puffs, has been found under a sofa where there is not a lot of space). The keychains diameter (approximately 2 inches) is smaller and seems more appropriate. Some Pygmy Puffs plush are in pink cages, exacly like in the [[Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (film)|movie]].

Pygmy Puffs resemble little fluffy balls that roll around, squeak, and come in various shades of pink and purple. Luna Lovegood believed that all Pygmy Puffs sing on Boxing Day.[1]
Pygmy Puffs would appear to be violations of the Ban on Experimental Breeding. However, as they are merely undersize Puffskeins, this may not count as an offence. Also Fred and George may have attained a special licence to breed them.

Despite the blanket ban on the Weasley's Wizard Wheezes products on Hogwarts, Ginny somehow managed to bring Arnold with her into Hogwarts. This may be because the Pygmy Puffs are not joke items and that the ban Argus Filch placed on Weasley's Wizard Wheezes may only affect their joke products.
